Li Er's story attracted us, this vacant land of our Taoist temple, at that time, became an entertainment place for everyone to gather, sometimes they said these strange things, many people came to listen, there was nothing to do, more and more people gathered together, some women in the village were thick, and they also held the soles of their shoes and listened to Li Er's stories.

Most of the old men in the village have never experienced a big scene, Li Eryi saw that these people were all fascinated, and his voice became louder, he said: "When I saw that the fourth man was here again, this guy still had a bloody face and was dirty, he stood there and asked me to wash the blood off his face." I think this fourth child is really a liar to the family, and the strong man came up and said, "Aren't you a liar?" Let me tell you, I, Li Er, am also a strong seed, if you don't push me for three days to grind, I won't wash you, let's see who can beat whom. ”

I didn't expect the fourth child to be stubborn, where he squeaked and pushed up the stone mill, while pushing while adding beans to the grinding eye, today the fourth child pushed up the mill, much more skilled than yesterday, I was lying on the bed, the beauty in my heart, this fourth is a single, I didn't expect me to wipe his blood, this thing was actually restrained by me, I looked at the fourth brother who was grinding there, the beauty in my heart, don't mention it. I thought you push, I have to sleep.

So I didn't care about the fourth child and slept there by myself. The small stone mill creaked, and he hummed in his mouth: "Push and grind, crutch and grind, push white noodles, burn steamed buns, don't eat or eat two ......"

Someone pushes and grinds, don't mention the fragrance when you sleep, when you wake up, the fourth child is still the same as yesterday, I don't know where I went, my mother made tofu, and I took the tofu pick to sell tofu. In the past two days, I have been selling tofu very fast, I am happy, I bought some pig's head meat for my mother in the evening, I got a little wine, and happily ate a meal, my mother said to me with tears: "Son, if your father knows that you are so filial, he will rest assured in the spirit of heaven, my son has learned well, really learned well." ”

I went to the mill in a daze after drinking, there was no one in the black rumbling, I think the fourth child will definitely not come today, think about it, I just wiped the nose blood on his face, he pushed me for two days, I was not beaten down by him, today he will not be stupid enough to come and grind again. I drank a little wine and didn't want to grind, so I fell directly on the bed, and I fell asleep, and I was sleeping sweetly, when suddenly I screamed, and I woke up all of a sudden, and I sat up from the bed and said loudly: "Who, don't let people sleep in the middle of the night?" ”

At this time, a voice said, "Son, it's me, it's my mother who just called." ”

As soon as I heard this, I quickly got up, lit the oil lamp, and saw my mother sitting on the ground, holding a piece of cloth in her hand, and the lamp bowl around me was shattered, I hurriedly went over to help my mother up, and asked my mother what she was doing in the middle of the night, my mother was very panicked, and told her about the situation she encountered, and I gasped when I heard it.

It turned out that my mother saw that I drank wine, and she was afraid that she couldn't grind, and she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so she got up and wanted to help me grind, after all, selling tofu is our family's main business, and if you don't sell this tofu dregs for a day, you won't be able to eat it for a day. My mother was holding the lamp bowl, and heard the creaking sound of the mill, and there was no light in the house, so my mother felt strange, what was wrong, and the grinding in the middle of the night did not light the lamp, and I wondered if I had night eyes. So my mother thought about it, and when she walked in, she saw that a person was grinding, and my mother said, "Son, why don't you grind without lighting the lamp?" ”

The fourth grinder hurriedly said: "Auntie, it's me, the fourth." ”

As soon as my mother heard that it was the fourth, she hurriedly walked over, shone the lamp on the fourth child's face, and said, "It turned out to be the fourth?" Fourth, you're in the middle of the night, what are you pushing here? ”

The fourth child said: "Auntie, your son asked me to push it." ”

My mother said, "How can this bastard let the guests push and grind in the dark?" I'll wake him up and ask. ”

The fourth child hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't ask, the second child has fallen asleep after drinking some wine, auntie, look at my face, this blood is smeared by your son, can you help me wipe the blood clean?" ”

When my mother heard this, she felt sorry at the time, and said, "Fourth, I'm really sorry, I'll wipe it." ”

As he spoke, he found a cloth to wipe his hands, dipped it in some water, and helped the fourth child wipe the blood on his face, and after wiping it clean, the fourth child quickly kowtowed to my mother, and said while kowtowing: "Auntie, thank you for the old man, I have to reincarnate quickly, you persuade Li Er, nine out of ten bets to lose, which day you lose your conscience, and the next life will be reduced to a beast, it will not be worth it." ”

After finishing speaking, a gust of wind blew and whined, and the lamp in my mother's hand was blown out, and at the moment of the blowing, my mother saw the face of the fourth child, which was white and white. My mother sat on the ground in fright, and then I got up, and as soon as my mother said about it, I said: "Mother, you must be old and dizzy, you must have seen the old dizzy mistake, since ancient times, you have seen people push and grind, how can you ever see a ghost push and grind, the fourth child pushed me for two days to grind, today is the third day, of course he will leave after pushing the grind." ”

My mother shook her head and said, "It may really be that my old eyes are dizzy, and my ears are not good, so I read and heard the wrong thing, you can sleep again, and my mother will make tofu." ”

Saying that, my mother trembled and poured soy milk into the pot, I looked at my mother's back at this time, and suddenly felt a sense of guilt, I couldn't sleep anymore, and helped my mother make tofu. After the tofu was made, my mother cut off two catties of tofu with a tofu knife, and then said to me: "After you sell the tofu, send these two catties of tofu to the fourth child, no matter how the old four are, he pushed us for three days to grind, and we have to repay others." ”

I nodded, and then went to sell tofu, after selling tofu, with two catties of tofu, I went to the fourth child's house, to his door, I saw that the door was still closed, the door had the appearance of burning paper, and the door was still pasted with yellow paper, what was going on, it happened that there was an old man who was herding cattle and came over, I quickly asked the old man: "Uncle, this fourth man is not at home, where is it?" ”

The old man looked at him strangely, and then said, "Don't you know? ”

I said, "Uncle, I'm not from this village, how can I know." ”

The old man said, "He died four or five days ago. ”

When I heard that the fourth child died, I was stunned and said, "The fourth child is dead? How is this possible. I was playing dice with him three days ago. ”

The old man looked at me strangely, and then said to me, "Young man, you must have encountered a ghost, do you look at the pile of paper ashes in front of you?" That's where the fourth child fell into the old basin, and when he went out of the funeral, there was no queen, and he still had the old basin on his own. ”

I looked at the pile of paper ashes, I was stunned, it seems that the fourth child is really dead, three days ago, the one who gambled with me was definitely not a person, but a gambler, I calmed down and asked: "Uncle, I want to ask, where is the fourth child buried?" ”

The old man said: "The fourth child is buried on the top of the white sand cover, and the people in the village say that the fourth child is good at gambling, and he will become a gambler after he dies, and he can't let the fourth child die and then harm the ghost, so everyone proposed to bury the fourth child on the white sand cover, and prevent him from gambling with other ghosts." ”

When I heard this, I turned around and ran towards Baishagai, and the old man looked at my back and said, "What's the matter with this person?" After inquiring, he ran away without letting go of a fart. ”

I don't care so much, now I just want to go to the grave of the fourth child to have a look, I ran to the big ditch in one breath, ran along the ditch to the edge of the big pond, and then walked up from the edge of the big pond, when I climbed to the top of the ditch, I saw a lonely grave sitting there, it was a new grave, needless to say that it was the grave of the fourth, I slowly walked to the grave of the fourth, and saw the grave of the fourth, there was a burning paper, there was a broken bowl in front of the grave, and there were three dice in the broken bowl, I understood at the time, it turned out that I really met a ghost, I also let the ghost push me for three days to grind, the dead are the biggest, I put the two catties of tofu on the grave, silently kowtowed to the fourth child three times, and then turned around and walked home.

As soon as I walked to the head of the village, I saw that the old donkey's head was spitting there, and when I came closer to listen, the old donkey's head was telling everyone about the strange things that the old donkey's family got off the donkey foal last night. ”
